Ingredients
  

For the salmon

  • 1 pound salmon fillet
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 clove garlic minced

For the sushi rice

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For the toppings

  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 1 cucumber sliced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • Furikake seasoning optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic.
  • Place the salmon fillet in a baking dish and pour the sauce over it. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
  • While the salmon is baking, cook the sushi rice. In a medium saucepan, combine the sushi rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Pour the mixture over the cooked rice and stir to combine.
  • To assemble the sushi bake, spread the sushi rice in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Flake the cooked salmon over the rice. Top with the avocado, cucumber, mayonnaise, sriracha, sesame seeds, and furikake seasoning (if using).
  • Bake for 10 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

Tips
For a spicier sushi bake, add more sriracha to the sauce.
If you don't have sushi rice, you can use regular white rice. Just cook it according to the package directions.
You can also add other toppings to your sushi bake, such as edamame, carrots, or green onions.
Baked Salmon Sushi Bake is a great way to use up leftover salmon. If you have any cooked salmon left over, simply flake it and add it to the dish.
This dish is also great for meal prep. Simply assemble the sushi bake ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Reheat it in the oven before serving.
Additional notes
Baked Salmon Sushi Bake is a great way to get your kids to eat fish. The salmon is cooked in a flavorful sauce that kids will love.
This dish is also a great option for a healthy party appetizer. Simply cut it into squares and serve with toothpicks.
If you're looking for a gluten-free option, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
